About the time in Carrillo
Carrillo sits at latitude 10.41, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 24m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:33 and sunset at 05:57 local time, giving 12h 24m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (10.41, -85.59) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Carrillo.
Carrillo runs on America/Costa_Rica, which puts the city UTC −6 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
